Abstract

The convertible skate (1) of the invention includes wheels (258, 268, 358, 368) that are interchangeable between an in-line configuration and a conventional roller skate configuration. The skate (1) can be readily changed between the different configurations by depressing a first button to release a latch and unlock the front pair of wheels (358, 368) from a first configuration. The front wheels (358, 368) can then be rotated into and locked by the latch at their second configuration. The same type of conversion method and apparatus can be used to convert the rear pair of wheels (258, 268) between different configurations. The skate (1) may also include a reverse spinning brake that prevents the skate from rolling backwards. The reverse spinning brake works in either the in-line configuration or the conventional roller skate configuration without requiring any changeover process between configurations.
